Definitely took a lot of force to do that. There was a retrofit of some sort about 8 or 9 years ago on them...not sure if it really helped anything. Doubt it. Almost every time when the headlight is not working, the mechanic has to acccess the circuit board to get the head light working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really depends how busy the body shop is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Unless I'm mistaken as there were two 126's that got into incidents this afternoon - the other one may have been in a minor collision at the Vaughan and St.Clair intersection.

From what it looks like it might have clipped a truck that was parked near Wychwood Ave. I couldn't tell if the truck was hit or not due to the angle I was at. As for the other unit I'm not sure about it as I didn't stick around to long. The other unit might be 1119 which was the replacement for 1126 as it was the other unit in service at the time.

Should be inspected sometime this week before a decision is made. 1013 is tracking at Hillcrest.

Mar_AC_23 Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 1670 and 1677 could possibly be at Hillcrest. When units go there for repairs, the trackers usually go dead. If it's not that, then I don't know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comment problem with tye radio is the PA annoucenment button does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabianColeyLOVESBUSES Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 what happens to a bus when the radios are removed could it be that they are slated for retirement or just a radio repair? how long do the buses wait for their repairs on their radios?

Bus_Medic Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Not long. 24 hours at most. The keypads and “computer” units in the cabinet behind the driver are exchangeable, with spare units stockpiled. During the day Monday to Friday, there are dedicated CIS technicians with their own shops at each division. Hillcrest largely has nothing to do with CIS repair. At all other times, there are roving techs on call. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
